Girl Riding Giant Dog, Naive Victorian Pencil Drawing flirtation and the instructionsThe more Victorian era naive drawings and watercolors I look at, the more I've come to recognize specific subjects this is the second drawing of girl riding a giant dog and having dropped her hat that I've found, the both way more primitive but both clearly based on the same popular image.
